00:00:02A huge story has developed as we kick off SmackDown from Las Vegas.

00:00:07WWF referees have gone on strike over one second working conditions

00:00:10following what happened on Raw this past Monday night.

00:00:14We ain't taking it no more.

00:00:16How will this strike affect the matches on SmackDown tonight?

00:00:44SHOCKMAN

00:01:08Are you ready for the Hottest Action Adventure Series on Network TV?

00:01:13Well, if you are, fasten your seatbelt and welcome to WWF McNamara UTN.

00:01:21We're at the Thomas and Mac Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

00:01:24And King, as you saw at the top of the show, the WWF referees are on strike.

00:01:30What does that mean?

00:01:31I mean, are we going to be able to have matches here tonight?

00:01:47We are referees!

00:01:49Are we going to have a fair mistake?

00:01:51He is supposed to entertainment for Spotify.

00:01:54The Thomas and Mac Center is going to lose for Stone Cold, Steve Austin.

00:02:00Swinging his way to the ring, Stone Cold, Steve Austin.

00:02:07And KM was pulling it out.

00:02:09Well, the Texas Rattlesnake was an opportunity to win the World Wrestling Federation Championship.

00:02:14We got that right!

00:02:17Austin dominated for the race, but the Rattlesnake hatred of the champion forced him over the edge.

00:02:22Over the last attack, which ended when he struck the WWF referee, Earl Hester, forcing a disqualification.

00:02:30And now, as Mark took place his concern, Stone Cold, Steve Austin, has slipped down the ladder of successful fans.

00:02:37He's got winners in his fight.

00:02:38He's at the bottom of the heap, as Mark did this show.

00:02:46Welcome to SmackDown on UPN, and what a way to kick it off with the Rattlesnake!

00:02:59Triple H, just because I got disqualified this past Monday on Raw, don't mean that you're through with Stone Cold

00:03:07Steve Austin.

00:03:08Oh no, not by a long shot!

00:03:15When I came to this ring, I came to beat your ass, and that's exactly what I did.

00:03:21The fact that Earl Hebner got his lights punched out is just too bad, because he was in the wrong

00:03:27place at the wrong time, and that's all I got to say about that.

00:03:31Yeah, and now he's walking the cricket line for the rest of the referees!

00:03:36You know Triple H, at SummerSlam, when you took that steel chair, and you beat my legs,

00:03:43hell, son, you should have kept on beating, because you didn't get the job done.

00:03:48You should have bashed my damn brains in, because as long as I am walking, your little ass is in

00:03:56these crosshairs,

00:03:57and I will hunt you down like the jackass that you are.

00:04:03Wait a minute!

00:04:06Open up a can of whoop ass, and serve it to you, right in front of the whole damn world!

00:04:12All right, Triple H barked up the wrong three, King!

00:04:15So tonight I say this, we can either do things the easy way,

00:04:22or we can do things the hard way, it really don't matter to me, but this is how it will

00:04:27go.

00:04:27You can come out here, and you can give me my rematch for the World Wrestling Federation title, right here

00:04:35tonight on SmackDown!

00:04:37Wait a minute, now, wait a minute!

00:04:38That sounds good to me!

00:04:39He's already had his rematch!

00:04:41He blew it!

00:04:42Ain't no ordinary match, no-holds-barred, you little b******!

00:04:47A no-holds-barred match for the title!

00:04:51Or, if you want to do things the hard way, which is just fine and dandy with Stone Cold Steve

00:04:59Austin,

00:05:00you will be carted out of this damn building in a body bag, and that's all I got to say

00:05:06about that!

00:05:06Is this so on?

00:05:08Uh-oh!

00:05:09Ha!

00:05:10You're gonna hang on with that shit, the names!

00:05:14And Townsley has stepped into town!

00:05:17We love to see you this week on WWF.com!

00:05:20That Triple H will have to defend the WWE Ref title and Unforgiven in a six-pack challenge!

00:05:28Come on, let's make it!

00:05:29Austin, the sun deserves a title shot here tonight!

00:05:32He had a tinkie boy!

00:05:33And Triple H surrounded by a sea of security!

00:05:38Police officers!

00:05:42Just like Monday on Raw, Triple H surrounded in a sea of blue!

00:05:48Well, Triple H has made a lot of enemies, I gotta admit that!

00:05:51He's the most wanted man in the WWF right now!

00:05:55And that six-pack challenge at Unforgiven is gonna be a war, and Helmsley's the bullseye!

00:06:02Austin!

00:06:03It goes like this!

00:06:05You ain't getting jacked, Jack!

00:06:08Uh-oh!

00:06:10Because as far as I'm concerned, Monday night you blew your opportunity!

00:06:15So now, you can kiss my ass!

00:06:18Whoa!

00:06:20See?

00:06:21Austin's not the game anymore!

00:06:22I don't know if you know that or not!

00:06:24Triple H is the game!

00:06:25Ordered to defend the WWF Championship tonight!

00:06:31Whoa!

00:06:33And look at the crowd here in the last five!

00:06:38I don't know how good your hair is, but you got about 15,000 people calling you an ass!

00:06:48No respect for the champion!

00:06:49This is embarrassing!

00:06:51He had no respect for Stone Cold!

00:06:52Like I give a crap about any of them!

00:06:55Uh-oh!

00:06:57Well, that's not gonna win him, folks!

00:07:00You can all kiss my ass as far as I'm concerned!

00:07:03What's that?

00:07:05Austin, it goes like this!

00:07:07I am gonna defend the WWF title tonight!

00:07:11Wow!

00:07:11And I'm gonna defend it against the main event competitor of my choice, but it ain't gonna

00:07:17be you!

00:07:20Who's it gonna be?

00:07:22But it will be somebody that you've shared that very ring with!

00:07:27Well, that could be any number of people!

00:07:33And Austin, that is as close as you will ever get to this again!

00:07:42And that is the name of the game!

00:07:47Well, before you leave, son, take your little eyeglasses off and listen to what I got to

00:07:51say!

00:07:52You can prance around all you want and talk about your little title matches!

00:07:56I'll be following you, little ass, all night long!

00:08:00Uh-oh!

00:08:02Sounds like it's gonna be the hard way!

00:08:03So you better grow some of those little beady eyes in the back of your head, because before

00:08:10the night's over, Austin 316 will be so far up your ass, you won't be able to walk again!

00:08:16You hear that?

00:08:17And that's the bottom line to Stone Cold Sensor!

00:08:21Now we've got a Stone Cold Sensor on your hands!

00:08:24Hey!

00:08:25Out of the world, is Stone Cold Steve Austin gonna get to Triple H tonight on SmackDown!

00:08:34What does the WWF staff, the SSOB, have planned for the WWF Champions?

00:08:40I really don't know, but all we do know is that Triple H is gonna defend the WWF title

00:08:46here tonight!

00:08:47Against someone who, I guess, has wrestled Stone Cold as a man of it!

00:08:52Here in this mirror's ring!

00:08:53The whole Triple H has appointed me tonight on SmackDown!

00:08:56Bucking out earlier this week on WWF.com!

00:08:59A six-pack challenge, and that's forgiven!

00:09:02It'll involve Triple H, Kane, Undertaker, Big Show, The Rock, and Mankind!

00:09:07And Kane, the reason for the six-pack challenge is, there's no number one contender yet for

00:09:12the WWF title!

00:09:14We had a brief brawl match on Raw this past Monday night to determine who would be the

00:09:19number one contender, but it turned into utter chaos!

00:09:22Oh, every time a referee tried to get the job done to make a count, he got blasted!

00:09:27Look at that, Timmy White, like Keona!

00:09:30Referee after referee got nailed!

00:09:32And the result of this free-for-all match, no number one contender was determined, plus

00:09:38WWF referees are on strike as we speak outside the Commons and Max Center in Los Angeles!

00:09:44I'm gonna tell you something, it was why you saw Merrill Hefner, the Chief Referee, come

00:09:47down, he said, I don't want any part of it!

00:09:49There's also a five-man Water Rumbles rules match tonight!

00:09:53Oh, and, uh, don't forget about...

00:09:55Well, there you see that, don't forget about Ken Shamrock, he's taking on Curtis Hughes!

00:10:00And how about the big boss man challenging Al Chodoway?

00:10:03Pepper on a pole match?

00:10:04Oh, can you believe that?

00:10:05We're gonna have a chihuahua on a stick!

00:10:07I can't believe it!

00:10:08Pepper?

00:10:09Well, what's left of Pepper is gonna be put on the top of a pole!

00:10:12And these two guys are gonna go at it!

00:10:14I guess the winner gets better!

00:10:15No chance!

00:10:16I guess that's what you've got!

00:10:19It's Shane McMahon!

00:10:20What?

00:10:21Who up against a machine too strong!

00:10:24It's all about the most of the great souls for Shane McMahon!

00:10:29Who up against a machine too strong!

00:10:31Ladies and gentlemen, it's railing the owner of the World Wrestling Federation, Shane McMahon!

00:10:37It's just about to watch out!

00:10:38He's on the top of a long-time long-time man!

00:10:41And there's Sidney Marcona!

00:10:43Shane McMahon!

00:10:43She's a queen of the internet!

00:10:45She has a reacqueline role on Shasta McNasty, a new show on UPN!

00:10:49She's here ringside tonight for SmackDown!

00:10:53He's like a chain, he's dressed to fight!

00:10:55This is directed to one individual, and that happens to be Joey Abs.

00:11:00Joey, you and I, Rodney, Pete Gass, we go back a long, long time.

00:11:05We've been friends for a while.

00:11:06Well, but this is not about friendship.

00:11:09This is all about my sister Stephanie's happiness, and I ask you as nicely as possible to stay out of

00:11:15it.

00:11:15So, Joey Abs, I'm not asking you, I'm telling you, come down here right now,

00:11:21because we're going to settle this right now, and I'm going to show you what brotherly love is all about.

00:11:27Uh-oh!

00:11:27Shane McMahon has challenged Joey Abs.

00:11:31A good friend of Shane's from the Mean Street Posse, and will the challenge be accepted?

00:11:36Well, see, this is not about business anymore.

00:11:38Like you said, this is personal.

00:11:41It's about Shane and his sister.

00:11:43Well, Shane warned the Posse to stay away from Stephanie McMahon and her fiancé, Tess.

00:11:48Well, the Posse didn't heed the warning.

00:11:50I mean, it was Joey Abs challenging Tess this past week on Raw.

00:11:54Yeah, but I think what really got Shane's ire up is the fact that, you heard it,

00:11:58Joey Abs calls Stephanie McMahon, Shane's sister, a tramp.

00:12:03Whoa!

00:12:04And can you see Terry now along with the Mean Street Posse?

00:12:06You know, you have to believe that perhaps she's had something to do.

00:12:09And look at that!

00:12:10Change a heart of the Posse!

00:12:11And Shane McMahon taking out Gass, Rodney, and Joey Abs.

00:12:15Oh, my God!

00:12:15And here we go!

00:12:16Did you see Shane fly?

00:12:18Shane McMahon going out for him, and he wants Joey Abs in a bad way!

00:12:23I can't believe it!

00:12:24There we go now!

00:12:25Posse fly by Shane McMahon!

00:12:27Keep in mind, folks, no referee for this challenge from Shane!

00:12:31The referees are on strike!

00:12:33Oh, my!

00:12:35Oh, no, look at this!

00:12:36And then you see Tess and Stephanie watching in the backstage area as the Posse now.

00:12:41Go to work on Shane McMahon.

00:12:42It's a three-on-one.

00:12:43Well, I guess this is all legal.

00:12:45We have no referee out here!

00:12:46Oh!

00:12:48This is ridiculous.

00:12:49The Posse grew up with Shane McMahon.

00:12:51And Joey Abs says he wants Shane for himself.

00:12:54Get out of here!

00:12:55Well, Shane, you have to find he's getting one now.

00:12:57Oh!

00:12:59WWF has been trying to get replacement officials, King, lined up all afternoon long once we learned

00:13:04that the referees were going to go out on strike.

00:13:07Uh-oh.

00:13:07And wait a minute.

00:13:08This is Gerald Briscoe.

00:13:10Wait a minute.

00:13:11What is he?

00:13:13Well, he's the referee!

00:13:14Well, he's the referee!

00:13:15As we sit down and scramble it all after him.

00:13:17Here now, Shane pulls up Joey Abs!

00:13:19One!

00:13:20One!

00:13:20Two and a kick out!

00:13:22Jerry Briscoe down for the count that time.

00:13:24They scramble all afternoon that Jerry Briscoe's the best they can come up with!

00:13:27Again, Shane's sister, Stephanie, and her fiancé, Tess, look on.

00:13:33And look at this now.

00:13:34Joey Abs, suplex on it, Shane McMahon!

00:13:38Joey Abs telling the referee, count Jerry Briscoe now down, hook of the leg.

00:13:42There's two.

00:13:43Goes for three.

00:13:43And Shane gets the shoulder up.

00:13:45That's a little slow.

00:13:46That's a geriatric count.

00:13:47Not a Jerry Briscoe count.

00:13:48It's geriatric.

00:13:49Well, keep in mind, a bit of a history between Jerry Briscoe and the Mean Street Posse.

00:13:55Oh, yeah, right.

00:13:57So what you're telling me is that Jerry Briscoe is not going to count if Joey Abs is safe in.

00:14:01I'm not saying that at all.

00:14:03Jerry Briscoe, I'm sure, is going to be a fair referee.

00:14:05Covered out by Shane.

00:14:06Here's the hook of the leg.

00:14:07There's two.

00:14:08And Pete Gass grabs Jerry Briscoe.

00:14:10And he knocks him with the right hand.

00:14:12Oh, look at Briscoe.

00:14:13He's right back.

00:14:13And now Briscoe battling back with Pete Gass.

00:14:16Oh, Rodney's in the ground.

00:14:17And he takes out Shane.

00:14:19And the referee's distracted.

00:14:21Oh, this is a mauling.

00:14:25This is a dreaded street fight, King.

00:14:27I can't believe this.

00:14:28I mean, these guys used to be the closest friends since childhood.

00:14:32They all grew up together.

00:14:33And now look.

00:14:34Oh, Joey Abs just taken out Rodney.

00:14:37Shane with a desperation move at the last moment.

00:14:40But does he have anything left?

00:14:42Uh-oh.

00:14:43Oh.

00:14:44And Joey Abs with the right hand.

00:14:45This is ridiculous, King.

00:14:46These guys grew up with Shane McMahon.

00:14:48They spent some of the most special times together.

00:14:50And look, still...

00:14:51Oh!

00:14:52That's what I see.

00:14:53Oh, no referee.

00:14:55No referee at all.

00:14:58Pete Gass, Joe Briscoe.

00:15:00Oh, look at me.

00:15:01Pat Patterson.

00:15:01Another one.

00:15:03Pat Patterson now out as a special guest referee.

00:15:06Hold on.

00:15:08Oh, no.

00:15:08Look at this now.

00:15:09Shane rolls him over.

00:15:09Here's the cover now.

00:15:11Look at me.

00:15:12Pulled Pat Patterson out.

00:15:14What are we gonna do?

00:15:15There are no referees.

00:15:17The referees are on strike.

00:15:19And the World Wrestling Federation slammering.

00:15:21We get some order in these matches tonight.

00:15:23I expect that.

00:15:24I think Pat Patterson referee the match.

00:15:26David didn't get to go.

00:15:27Look at it.

00:15:27There's Shane now.

00:15:29With Joey Abs.

00:15:29Bring him last spear by Shane.

00:15:31And he's going to work with Joey Abs.

00:15:33Again, no referee in this matchup.

00:15:34This is personal for Shane.

00:15:37He warned the posse to stay away from Test and Stephanie.

00:15:41And on Raw Monday night, Joey Abs and the posse refused to do it.

00:15:45Look at this.

00:15:46Gerald Briscoe and Pete Gass are going out.

00:15:48And Shane's standing on the top rope.

00:15:49Look at it.

00:15:50Oh, my God.

00:15:50Oh, Shane from the top rope.

00:15:51Did you see that?

00:15:53Wait a minute.

00:15:54A referee is doing it.

00:15:55That's Sean Stacey.

00:15:56What is he doing in there?

00:15:58Showing Shane.

00:15:59Showing Shane McMahon.

00:16:01It's listening to the Sean Stacey's business.

00:16:03Well, Sean Stacey has all the posse he wants for approval attack last week.

00:16:08And here's Stephanie McDaniels.

00:16:10Where did all these referee shirts come from?

00:16:12How did Sean Stacey have?

00:16:14Jerry Briscoe and Pete Patterson get referee shirts.

00:16:17He's definitely mad at what he's doing.

00:16:19A brother show as Tester's fiancee.

00:16:22Let's go.

00:16:25Tester's fiancee is approving from the rock.

00:16:27Oh, they smile on the face.

00:16:29And what a moment in the ring.

00:16:31Shane and Stephanie kept racing.

00:16:36And Stephanie, did you see it?

00:16:38For good measure.

00:16:40And it's going in.

00:16:41Look at her strap again.

00:16:46Unbelievable.

00:16:47Shane has won for his sister's honor here tonight.

00:16:51While the family is packed together.

00:16:53Oh, wait a minute.

00:16:53Has he seen Cindy Margolis yet again?

00:16:56I think, I mean.

00:16:56And there's Ivory, the WWF Women's Champion.

00:17:01What in the world is a women's champ up to now?

00:17:06SmackDown comes to you from the casino capital of the world.

00:17:09Yes!

00:17:10The bright lights and all night fun of Las Vegas, Nevada.

00:17:13And we're at the Thomas and Knack Center in Las Vegas.

00:17:17And can't win a SmackDown.

00:17:19It's been already.

00:17:20World Wrestling Federation referees are on strike.

00:17:23Stone Cold Steve Austin stalking Triple H.

00:17:26Triple H will defend the title tag as well.

00:17:28Hey, speaking of titles,

00:17:30here's the WWF Women's Champion, Ivory.

00:17:33Ladies and gentlemen, making her way to the ring,

00:17:36the World Wrestling Federation Women's Champion, Ivory.

00:17:40Well, there's some excitement in Las Vegas tonight for SmackDown.

00:17:44It's going to be electric this Sunday in Austin.

00:17:45The big WWF Live event on there.

00:17:48And tickets are on sale Saturday for the first time ever.

00:17:51Raw and War comes to the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

00:17:54And SmackDown comes to Anaheim.

00:17:56Take us on sale Saturday.

00:17:58Wow.

00:17:58You know, one of the nicest things about being the WWF Women's Champion

00:18:03is that I get to meet so many very important people.

00:18:07Yeah, like me.

00:18:08Athletes, politicians.

00:18:11Kings.

00:18:12My favorite, though, are the movie stars.

00:18:16Yes.

00:18:17I thought she was going to say future.

00:18:18And I think, people, here tonight,

00:18:21we have a very bright, shining star amongst us tonight.

00:18:29Cindy Margolis.

00:18:31Please, will you stand up for the people?

00:18:33And there she is.

00:18:35I guess Ivory's a big Cindy Margolis fan.

00:18:36Is she not beautiful?

00:18:38Yes, they are beautiful.

00:18:39Cindy, would you do me the honor of joining me in the ring?

00:18:47Oh, yeah, please.

00:18:49Oh, please, Cindy, please.

00:18:52Please, Cindy, I'm your biggest fan.

00:18:56Oh, come on, folks.

00:18:57Let's get Cindy in the ring.

00:18:59You know, she's the most downloaded star in the internet.

00:19:02Oh, she is beautiful, isn't she?

00:19:04And such a movie star.

00:19:08Well, Cindy Margolis is going to join Ivory in the ring.

00:19:12Oh, yes.

00:19:12Come on, King, help her over.

00:19:14Okay.

00:19:14Come and join me.

00:19:17Oh, isn't she the best?

00:19:19King, put the tongue back in your mouth.

00:19:21Oh, those are restaurant-quality puppies.

00:19:24Woo-hoo!

00:19:25Oh, it's so great to meet you.

00:19:30She is more beautiful up close, people.

00:19:33I'd like to get close.

00:19:35To meet the accolades.

00:19:37Suddenly, Susan, this Monday, you and Brooke taping together.

00:19:44And right here on UPN, Shasta McNasty, a new show.

00:19:48Oh, yeah, she's a Shasta McNasty.

00:19:49Oh, my gosh.

00:19:51You just must be thrilled, Cindy.

00:19:56www.cindymarcolas.com.

00:19:58I mean, you are not just a movie star.

00:20:01You are like the most downloaded woman on the planet or something.

00:20:06Oh, I'd love to download her.

00:20:07You're so huge.

00:20:11Now, Cindy, could you do me a favor?

00:20:15Could you show me one of those striking poses that you showed the people on the Internet?

00:20:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:20:21Right here.

00:20:22Come on.

00:20:23She's a little embarrassed, King.

00:20:24Oh, please, Cindy.

00:20:25Please, Cindy.

00:20:27Could you just lay down on the mat and maybe do, like, one of the bikini poses?

00:20:31Woo-hoo, yes.

00:20:31That the people...

00:20:32Please.

00:20:33Oh, people, wouldn't you love to see one of the poses right here?

00:20:36Yes, absolutely.

00:20:36Now, King Ivory's pushing it a little bit here.

00:20:39A little obnoxious.

00:20:43Okay.

00:20:44Okay.

00:20:46Well, Cindy thanking her.

00:20:47Wait a minute.

00:20:49I mean, lay down and strike the pose before I have to lay you down myself.

00:20:57Bitch.

00:20:58Whoa!

00:20:58What the hell is Ivory doing here?

00:21:01She called her a witch or...

00:21:03Oh, that...

00:21:04Oh, it's beautiful.

00:21:06Oh, wait a minute now.

00:21:09What?

00:21:10It's beautiful, isn't it?

00:21:11What's he doing out here?

00:21:12Look at this.

00:21:13Just Jared.

00:21:14Wait a minute.

00:21:15What?

00:21:15No, he wouldn't.

00:21:16He wouldn't do that to Cindy Margolis.

00:21:17You're kidding me.

00:21:18What the hell is Jared doing?

00:21:20No, the figure for him.

00:21:21Cindy Margolis.

00:21:22Look at this.

00:21:23What's Jared trying to prove?

00:21:25He's got the figure for him.

00:21:27Cindy Margolis is an innocent bitch.

00:21:29He's got the first name here, King.

00:21:30That's not Mae Young he's got now.

00:21:32Oh, look.

00:21:34Come on, Jared.

00:21:37This is ridiculous.

00:21:40Same thing he did to Lillian Garcia, the ring announcer.

00:21:43Yeah, it was funny that I'm wrong.

00:21:45And now he's high-fiving Ivory.

00:21:49And now, wait a minute.

00:21:51Jared just scared Ivory.

00:21:54What kind of obvious?

00:21:56Jared again is sending a message to China.

00:21:59No mercy for China.

00:22:01And look at this.

00:22:01Jared, figure four on Ivory.

00:22:04I think it's the president of the He-Man Women Haters Club.

00:22:07Well, Jared meets China at Unforgiven.

00:22:10For the Intercontinental Championship.

00:22:12Trying to send a message to China.

00:22:14But this is ridiculous.

00:22:17He goes now.

00:22:18And I'm just Jared going after Cindy Margolis.

00:22:21And Ivory.

00:22:23Well, right now, let's get back to Lillian with Triple H.

00:22:27Triple H, can you tell us who you're going to challenge tonight for the WWF title?

00:22:32Well, I can tell you who it's going to be.

00:22:34And I can tell you who it's not going to be.

00:22:36It's not going to be Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:22:38And Austin can make all the idle threats he wants.

00:22:41But the fact of the matter is, Austin better hope I don't come looking for him tonight for you.

00:22:46A lot of security hanging around for Triple H, and it's a good thing.

00:22:50Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:22:51And I'll tell you why.

00:22:52And Triple H won't make it through this night on SmackDown.

00:22:56The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

00:23:00And it is for the World Wrestling Federation European Championship.

00:23:03Making it right there from Sillsby, Texas.

00:23:06Weighing in at 400 pounds.

00:23:08It's the European champion, sexual chocolate, Mark Henry.

00:23:14Well, this past week on Raw, Mark Henry was supposed to team with Steve Blackman against

00:23:18Lillian and Steele O'Brown.

00:23:19But Steve Blackman was defeated when it turned into a handicap match because Mark Henry didn't

00:23:24show up.

00:23:25He was a bit preoccupied.

00:23:27Well, I mean, you know, we never knew exactly what happened to Mark Henry.

00:23:30Blackman winning it all and it lost.

00:23:32But then all of a sudden, GTV showed us where Mark Henry was.

00:23:37Lap dances from the Godfather's hose.

00:23:40And Steve Blackman was a bit upset, to say the least.

00:23:43But he gets a chance and a little bit of revenge.

00:23:45Come on, Michael.

00:23:46Like, you don't love a lap dance.

00:23:48European titles on the line.

00:23:50And the challenger from Anville, Pennsylvania.

00:23:54Weighing in at 246 pounds.

00:23:57The lethal weapon, Steve Blackman.

00:24:01Uh-oh, look at that look on Blackman's face.

00:24:03He's hot in sexual chocolate.

00:24:05Well, away from this Sunday at Unforgiven, Steve Blackman will meet Val Venus.

00:24:10And it could be for the European title.

00:24:12And here goes the lethal weapon now.

00:24:14Sexual chocolate, Mark Henry at Unforgiven will take on D'Lo Brown.

00:24:18And look at Blackman now.

00:24:19Cameron away on the 400-pounder.

00:24:22What a night it's been on SmackDown so far, folks.

00:24:24You see Tony Gurria.

00:24:27He's the referee for this match.

00:24:29WWF official scrambling all day long, looking for a replacement at referees

00:24:34after we found out the normal referees are out on strike.

00:24:38Striking over unfair working conditions.

00:24:41He's got a close line off the stairs by Steve Blackman.

00:24:45You know what I just thought of?

00:24:46I just had a great idea.

00:24:47Can you get a phone over there?

00:24:49Can we get a hold of Triple H in the back?

00:24:52He's got all the police here.

00:24:53He needs to go in and have Austin arrested again tonight.

00:24:56Just like he did Monday, right?

00:24:57Austin made terroristic crutches.

00:25:00And here's Steve Blackman now.

00:25:02Wait a minute.

00:25:03Val Venis with a chendo stick.

00:25:06And a low blood of Blackman.

00:25:07Oh!

00:25:08Across the head to the head.

00:25:10The outcome forgiven by Val Venis.

00:25:13Mark Henry takes advantage.

00:25:15And he picks up the victory.

00:25:17Sexual.

00:25:17And Mark Henry goes in.

00:25:18Here's your winner.

00:25:19And still, what was the first European champion?

00:25:24Sijuol Brown.

00:25:25Sijuol Brown will beat Mark Henry at Unforgiven.

00:25:27For the European title.

00:25:29But he does it on the way.

00:25:30The back fighter.

00:25:31D'Lo off the rubs now.

00:25:32Mark Henry's sexual chocolate.

00:25:34And look at D'Lo Brown going to work.

00:25:35Oh!

00:25:36Oh!

00:25:37Did you see D'Lo?

00:25:39I can't believe it!

00:25:41Sijuol Brown has seen 400 pounds of Mark Henry in the air.

00:25:45He won the European Championship back at Unforgiven.

00:25:48Unforgiven.

00:25:49So a week from this Sunday.

00:25:51From Charlotte, North Carolina.

00:25:53This last-minute replacement referee, Tony Green.

00:25:56He just walked out of the ring and left for sexual chocolate to the wall.

00:26:05That's a message from me to China via my Internet.

00:26:09Why don't you download that?

00:26:10That's a message, and I want you to send it straight to China.

00:26:13It's a man.

00:26:14Take the hell out of here.

00:26:16This is none of your damn business.

00:26:17Listen, Pee-wee, I'm just trying to steal you from the Internet.

00:26:19Whoa!

00:26:19Look at this!

00:26:20Tested Jarrett going at it!

00:26:22Tested hurt it off from Jeff Jarrett!

00:26:26Jeff Jarrett, your record against a fabulous moolah and Cindy Margolis is a lot better

00:26:30it is than it was with Tess.

00:26:31Shut up, wise ass, or I'll shut you up, Taylor.

00:26:34And forget about Margolis, that Barbie doll wannabe.

00:26:37Out here in Vegas, blinds, dumb blinds come dime a dozen.

00:26:41And you know, another dumb blind is Tess.

00:26:43I'm going to issue a challenge to him for my belt.

00:26:45And when I get done with him, his bride-to-be won't even recognize his ass.

00:26:50Jeff Jarrett means business.

00:26:52Now challenging Tess to a battle here tonight on SmackDown.

00:26:59Woo, man!

00:27:04Breathe the one!

00:27:06He calls himself the eye of total of rock and roll.

00:27:11He calls SmackDown his show.

00:27:14Three-day throw by Yoriko, running here to save the WWE.

00:27:19From what?

00:27:21What do you mean, from what?

00:27:23He's a tremendous athlete, and his skills will be on display a week from this Sunday.

00:27:29And I forgive it when he takes on the world's most dangerous man, Ken Shamrock.

00:27:34And I'll tell you what, Chris Jericho continues to dupe all of us in the world's most dangerous man, Ken

00:27:41Shamrock.

00:27:42This past Monday night on Raw, Jericho debuted the Y2 Jail.

00:27:46A steel cage in which he would battle a supposed chute fighter, Scott Gracie.

00:27:51But it was a hoax, a trap, in which Dolores Shamrock, Gracie, was actually Curtis Hughes,

00:27:57a former bodyguard in the WWF, apparently now employed by Jericho.

00:28:02I am one bad mama jammer!

00:28:11And ladies and gentlemen, I have tremendous news.

00:28:15Uh-oh, what?

00:28:16Ken Shamrock has finally admitted defeat.

00:28:21Yes, that's right.

00:28:23Just moments ago backstage, he admitted to me that I, not he, am the world's most dangerous man.

00:28:31And that I am much tougher than he is.

00:28:36Shamrock admitted it?

00:28:37No, he didn't admit it, please.

00:28:39He then proceeded to get down on his hands and knees and begged me to make sure that we never,

00:28:48ever met face-to-face again.

00:28:52Oh, I hope we got that on film.

00:28:54I hope we got pictures of that.

00:28:56And he also licked the dust off my boots in gratitude for me hiring this man, Curtis, to protect me

00:29:05from tearing him apart limb from limb.

00:29:10Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you do not believe this.

00:29:13And it's for that reason that I have allowed Curtis to take my place in this match tonight.

00:29:21What a guy.

00:29:22He's allowed Curtis to take his place.

00:29:23And not only did I do that, but I also scoured the streets of this city to find a referee

00:29:31who was qualified enough to work in this match.

00:29:34And I found that and so much more.

00:29:38Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you one of the greatest international officials of all time.

00:29:46A man who is so respected and revered that he is forced to wear a mask as to not be

00:29:53mobbed on the streets by his adoring fans.

00:29:56I think he meant revered.

00:29:57I present to you the great Mexican official, you're going to love this, Senor Manuel Garcia Lopez, or as we

00:30:07know him better, El Dopo.

00:30:11El Dopo, ladies and gentlemen, who the hell is El Dopo?

00:30:17You remember all those great classics that he officiated?

00:30:21I mean, we grew up with this guy.

00:30:24It's a pleasure to be even standing in the same ring with El Dopo.

00:30:28Senor, mucho gusto.

00:30:30I love this man, El Dopo.

00:30:32I love it too, but I think we might need to call the fashion police.

00:30:36Well, El Dopo, he looks El Gordo to me.

00:30:38Hey, watch it.

00:30:39Don't ever make fun of the El Dopo family.

00:30:41That's a long line of officials from Mexico.

00:30:44What do you know about the El Dopo family?

00:30:46Oh, I know him all.

00:30:47Son of El Dopo.

00:30:47Couple of El Dopo.

00:30:49Uncle of El Dopo.

00:30:56And his opponent making its way to the rank from San Diego, California.

00:31:01Weighing in at 243 pounds, the world's most dangerous man, Ken Shamrock.

00:31:08What is fair to start to be done by Ken Shamrock.

00:31:11We're joined at ringside here by Chris Jericho.

00:31:13And Chris, a week from this coming Sunday, Charlotte, North Carolina, unforgiven.

00:31:19Finally, you're going to step into the ring one-on-one with the world's most dangerous man.

00:31:23Well, I've been trying to teach this idiot that I am the world's most dangerous man.

00:31:27He knows it, but still, he refuses to back down and realize.

00:31:31And first of all, Michael Cole, you're the most inefficient, unequivocally worst announcer

00:31:35I've ever seen.

00:31:36King, you're one of the only mildly entertaining things in this boring, ridiculous federation.

00:31:40Well, I thank you very much.

00:31:41What do you think is going to happen when you face Shamrock face-to-face in that ring in Charlotte?

00:31:45I bet Shamrock will win the fans.

00:31:46He already has.

00:31:47And he's going to, if he even makes it through this match tonight, this man is a killer.

00:31:50I found him on the streets of Harlem, destroying guys left and right.

00:31:54I mean, look, he's just destroying Shamrock right now.

00:31:56He just got Shamrock into the barricade.

00:31:58That hurt.

00:31:59He could have a crust esophagus from that.

00:32:01You know, Mr. Jericho, you keep saying you're the world's most dangerous man,

00:32:05and you're a submission specialist and all this other stuff.

00:32:07Well, why haven't you got into the ring and faced Shamrock one-on-one?

00:32:10You've been sneak attacks, ambushes all along.

00:32:12First of all, you don't address me as Mr. Jericho.

00:32:14You address me as the role model and hero of the World Wrestling Federation, the savior Y2J himself.

00:32:18Do you understand me?

00:32:20Look out now.

00:32:20Here's the reversal.

00:32:21Hughes.

00:32:21Big block from Hughes.

00:32:23Yes.

00:32:23And he missed.

00:32:24Shamrock jumps underneath him and catches him with a right hand.

00:32:26That's okay.

00:32:27It's just a roost.

00:32:28You know, that referee looks mildly familiar.

00:32:31I can't quite see.

00:32:31Isn't it great to have El Dopo back in the WF ring?

00:32:34Where did you find El Dopo?

00:32:35He was working on the streets.

00:32:36I mean, remember all the classics he had in MSG in the 70s and 60s?

00:32:40Without a doubt.

00:32:41And look what great shape he's in.

00:32:42Oh, he's been hitting the gym.

00:32:43You can tell that, King.

00:32:45El Dopo.

00:32:47And look at Shamrock now crossing Curtis Hughes.

00:32:50That must have hurt.

00:32:50Into those steel stairs.

00:32:52Exactly what is your relationship, Y2J, with Curtis Hughes?

00:32:56Basically, hold on a second.

00:32:57I just got to go check on something.

00:32:59Wait.

00:33:00What's Jericho up to now?

00:33:01Well, here we go.

00:33:02Face to face, folks.

00:33:03Right here in front of us.

00:33:05And there goes Jericho.

00:33:06Running like the yellow.

00:33:07And he is.

00:33:08What?

00:33:08Look out now.

00:33:09Shamrock chasing him.

00:33:10And he gets caught by the clothesline by Hughes.

00:33:13Another ambush.

00:33:14Another setup by Chris Jericho on Ken Shamrock.

00:33:18And what in the world does El Dopo do it?

00:33:20It just doesn't take much to outsmart Shamrock, does it?

00:33:23Outsmarting El Dopo should be calling for the ring for the pellet here.

00:33:27I told you he's a great ring.

00:33:28Look at this.

00:33:29Blatant double team.

00:33:30Come on.

00:33:30Get him back in the ring.

00:33:34Good job, El Dopo.

00:33:35Give him a little latitude.

00:33:36Yeah, good job, latitude, please.

00:33:41And Curtis Hughes continues to hammer away on Ken Shamrock.

00:33:46You know what?

00:33:47You know what, Chris?

00:33:48I like the way El Dopo is a fantasy referee.

00:33:51He gives me a little latitude.

00:33:52Well, here's the cover now by Hughes.

00:33:54Wait a minute.

00:33:54There's one and a kick out by Shamrock.

00:33:57He's definitely in charge of the situation.

00:33:58You saw how Shamrock was breaking the rules.

00:34:01Right.

00:34:02And he kept law and order in there, which is tremendous.

00:34:04Yeah, we also saw how you once again ambushed the attack.

00:34:07Here we go now.

00:34:08Shamrock rolled it over.

00:34:08Oh, no.

00:34:10He's right down.

00:34:10And Hughes gets to the ball.

00:34:12Bring the ball.

00:34:13And El Dopo now.

00:34:14El Dopo's asking for the ball.

00:34:16What's he talking about?

00:34:17Discalatecada.

00:34:18El Señor, Shamrock.

00:34:20Discalatecada.

00:34:21He said he didn't break the hole.

00:34:22He's disqualified.

00:34:23Ladies and gentlemen, the referee has disqualified and kicked Shamrock.

00:34:28All right.

00:34:29Come on now.

00:34:30Curtis Hughes has defeated Shamrock.

00:34:32Shamrock was disqualified.

00:34:34What is Shamrock doing?

00:34:35Well, he's taken off El Dopo's mask is what he's doing.

00:34:38It's a fake.

00:34:39The mask is sacred to those people.

00:34:41He's unmasked El Dopo.

00:34:43What people?

00:34:43He's Howard Finkel.

00:34:45Huh?

00:34:46Howard Finkel was El Dopo.

00:34:48Yeah, it just looks like Howard Finkel.

00:34:50Yeah, El Dopo wants to get roped into this by Jericho.

00:34:54When is Fink going to learn his lesson?

00:34:56Why is Shamrock or Shamrock being such a bully now?

00:34:59Bully?

00:35:00Yeah, look at that.

00:35:01Shamrock had Hughes beat with that ankle lock.

00:35:03Hughes went to the ropes and then El Dopo Finkel, whatever you want to call him, call him the name

00:35:08Bell.

00:35:10It disqualified Shamrock.

00:35:11What's your language, buddy, Mel?

00:35:13I'll tell you one thing.

00:35:16Unforgiven.

00:35:16A week from this Sunday, Shamrock, Jericho.

00:35:19Oh, it's going to be a war.

00:35:20Right now, it's in to Lillian Garcia.

00:35:23Now, Mankind, what do you feel about this five-man Royal Rumbles rules match tonight?

00:35:29Well, Lillian, how do you feel about it?

00:35:32Well, I guess...

00:35:32It does...

00:35:34I could have gotten you just like that, but I didn't.

00:35:36I guess you'd expect total mayhem, wouldn't you?

00:35:39But can I share a secret with you?

00:35:40Me and Rock are going to be functioning as a team.

00:35:43You know why?

00:35:43Because there is a bond between the two of us that is inexplicable.

00:35:47It's almost like we together are one luxury automobile, with Rock being the fine-tuned motor,

00:35:53and Mankind is the rugged part that holds the luggage.

00:35:56In other words, I guess you could say Rock is the front end, Mankind is the rear end.

00:36:02But not just any rear end, Lillian.

00:36:04Mankind is the people's rear end.

00:36:07Well, the other thing is, though, that Triple H might choose you for the WWF title to go against him.

00:36:14Yeah, he might.

00:36:14That would be really cool.

00:36:15But you know what would be even cooler?

00:36:17If Triple H chose the Rock.

00:36:18That way, I could stand at ringside, root on the Rock, and look for new material.

00:36:23Know your role!

00:36:25Hey, you kids!

00:36:26Shut your mouth!

00:36:30And now, the WWF Boot of the Week, brought to you by Lutz.

00:36:34Tough boots built for the city.

00:36:36That's Lutz.

00:36:38The Undertaker just hit the referee!

00:36:40Oh!

00:36:41Kane just assaulted Tim White!

00:36:42Another referee's been knocked down here!

00:36:44Another ref coming in.

00:36:45Two more refs!

00:36:46Four referees lay out.

00:36:47Looks like a car crash!

00:36:48No respect for the Zebras tonight!

00:36:50Their senior referee, Earl Hebner, that's a helmet.

00:36:53I'm not getting in there!

00:36:54That was the WWF Boot of the Week, brought to you by Lutz.

00:36:59Boots and jeans with attitude.

00:37:01Lutz, decide and conquer.

00:37:04Back on SmackDown, outside the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas.

00:37:08WWF referees on strike over unsafe working conditions.

00:37:12You just saw an example why from this past week on Raw.

00:37:17Do you smell what the Rock is doing?

00:37:25The Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas has exploded.

00:37:29Back on the people's champ, the Rock.

00:37:32I can't hear things.

00:37:34I can't hear what you're saying.

00:37:35As we get set for the five-man Royal Rumble Rules Match.

00:37:40Two men will start.

00:37:41In every minute, another man will enter.

00:37:44You're eliminated when you're tossed over the top rope to the floor.

00:37:47The last man standing wins, and there's plenty of stakes.

00:37:53The six-pack challenge at Unforgiven.

00:37:57The winner of the World Women's Match will hit first track as a WWE WWE Champion.

00:38:04And that's going to be big, Michael Cole.

00:38:06It's going to be mighty, mighty big.

00:38:09And that six-pack challenge at Unforgiven.

00:38:12Triple H will start against one man.

00:38:14There will be four men in each corner of the ring.

00:38:17It's a tag team style match.

00:38:19But the first person to gain a pinball against any of the other five participants

00:38:24who will win the World Wrestling Federation of the Final.

00:38:32And Triple H will defend the World Wrestling Federation title tonight

00:38:37against an opponent still to be named.

00:38:39Will it be The Rock?

00:38:43Finally,

00:38:46The Rock has come back to Las Vegas.

00:38:52And I love The Rock here.

00:38:54We can bet on that.

00:39:03Undertaker, Mankind, Kane, and The Big Show.

00:39:06The Rock says you all four jabronis can go right down to the Tropicana Hotel.

00:39:12It's right up the road.

00:39:14You find the absolute best slot machine you can find.

00:39:18You can't miss it.

00:39:19It's got a big Brahma bull on the front,

00:39:21and it says The People's Slot Machine.

00:39:24Yeah, I saw that today.

00:39:32And then one of you jabronis pulls the handles.

00:39:36And there it is.

00:39:38One Brahma bull, two Brahma bulls, three Brahma bulls.

00:39:43You jabronis hit the jackpot.

00:39:45And then all of a sudden, you're jumping around like a bunch of idiots.

00:39:49Undertaker with his Mickey Mouse tattoos and his 33-pound head.

00:40:06And then all of a sudden, Kane running around doing cartwheels, scaring everybody in the casino.

00:40:25And the biggest goof of them all, The Big Slow, since they're scaring all The Rock's fans.

00:40:35And he's going to be in the ring with The Rock tonight.

00:40:41And then the doors open, and The Rock arrives.

00:40:50Hey.

00:40:53And as The Rock looks at all four of you jabronis, with tears rolling down your cheeks, and p***s rolling

00:41:00down your legs.

00:41:04The Rock says he's going to gather up all the gold coins you guys won.

00:41:10And in front of the millions of Rock's fans, he's going to shine all the gold coins up.

00:41:27Shine all the gold coins up.

00:41:29Turn them s***** sideways, and stick them straight up your candy in.

00:41:38If you smell what The Rock is.

00:41:59Is cooking.

00:42:01I'll tell you what, Kane.

00:42:03Fun time's over.

00:42:04Because guess who The Rock's role is.

00:42:06And it's run.

00:42:07Well, it's The Big Show.

00:42:09The Big Show.

00:42:10Oh, it's a show.

00:42:12Yeah, it's a big show.

00:42:13It's a big show tonight.

00:42:14It's The Big Show.

00:42:16He's 7'2".

00:42:17500 pounds.

00:42:20And Kane, do you think it could be The Big Show?

00:42:23We'll meet Triple H right here tonight for the title on SmackDown.

00:42:28And speaking of Triple H, Triple H in China, backstage, continue to be surrounded by the

00:42:34sea of security.

00:42:35You see him?

00:42:36I'm going to jump in before he gets to me.

00:42:38I'm going to beat his ass tonight.

00:42:40Keep your eyes peeled, guys.

00:42:42I couldn't be anywhere.

00:42:43We'll often get Triple H.

00:42:48We're back on SmackDown.

00:42:50The Royal Rumble Rules match about to begin.

00:42:53Here we go.

00:42:54And here we go now.

00:42:55The Rock's right hand.

00:42:56Back to The Big Show.

00:42:57Back into the corner.

00:42:58Royal Rumble Rules match.

00:42:59The Rock and Big Show start every one minute.

00:43:02Another participant enters.

00:43:03A lot on the line.

00:43:04The winner to get first shot.

00:43:06Champion in the six-pack match at Unforgiven.

00:43:09And look at The Rock go now.

00:43:11And the crowd comes alive for The Rock.

00:43:15Big Show block.

00:43:16What a strike for The Big Show.

00:43:19Hammering The Rock down into that turnbuckle.

00:43:21Oh, I'm worried about Triple H.

00:43:23We're talking about Steve Austin.

00:43:25Ever since Stone Cold's career was almost ended at SummerSlam, he has not been the same.

00:43:30He's changing.

00:43:31I can see it every day.

00:43:32And look at this now.

00:43:33And Big Show now.

00:43:35Going to work on The Rock.

00:43:37I mean, I agree with you, King.

00:43:38Austin is changing.

00:43:39But can you blame him?

00:43:41Triple H tried to cost Stone Cold Steve Austin his career.

00:43:44At SummerSlam.

00:43:45And as you see the clock now, counting down, the next man will enter this Royal Rumble Rules match in

00:43:51five seconds.

00:43:53Two, one.

00:43:54Who's it going to be?

00:43:58It's Mankind.

00:44:00Oh, no.

00:44:02Can Mankind be Triple H's opponent later tonight with the WWE title of the line?

00:44:08Remember, Triple H said, King.

00:44:10It had to be someone who shared main event status in the same ring as Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:44:15And Mankind now goes to work on The Big Show.

00:44:18Right.

00:44:18You heard that interview with Lillian Garcia.

00:44:20Mankind says he and The Rock are going to work as a well-oiled team here.

00:44:23It's collusion.

00:44:24Look at this.

00:44:25They are.

00:44:26And The Rock and Mankind now hammer away on Big Show.

00:44:29Big Show in trouble on the ropes.

00:44:31Here's the double team now.

00:44:34I can't believe that Mankind is actually calling the shots here.

00:44:37Rock kicked to the midsection.

00:44:38Here comes Mankind.

00:44:39Caught him with a knee lift to the face.

00:44:41And a double team again.

00:44:42Double close line.

00:44:43And the big man's down.

00:44:44Oh, Mankind and The Rock are working like a well-oiled machine.

00:44:48And Mankind giving The Rock the thumbs up.

00:44:52And Rock gave it back to him.

00:44:53And Mankind loved it.

00:44:57Mankind loves any kind of approval from The Rock.

00:45:00Even his dozens and dozens of fans.

00:45:02But this is just not fair, Michael Cole.

00:45:04You know it's not.

00:45:05And Cain can be Triple H's opponent for the World Wrestling Federation title later tonight.

00:45:29Speaking of Triple H, you know we talked about all these problems Triple H has run into in recent weeks.

00:45:33That he's a marked man.

00:45:35That he's the most wanted man in the World Wrestling Federation, Cain.

00:45:37The bottom line is, is the champion has brought it upon himself.

00:45:41A sledgehammer attack to Cain.

00:45:43A sledgehammer attack to Big Show.

00:45:45Attacks on The Rock.

00:45:46Attacks on Mankind.

00:45:47He calls Rock and Mankind the World Wrestling Federation tag team title.

00:45:51Man, would you shut up for a second where I can get a third in edgewise?

00:45:53All Triple H is doing is he's marking his territory.

00:45:56He's establishing his domain.

00:45:58I mean, he is the game.

00:45:59Let's face it.

00:46:00He's got to prove that to everybody.

00:46:03Oh, and look at this now.

00:46:05The only man yet to enter the ring here in this Royal Rumble Rules match is The Undertaker.

00:46:10Remember, you're eliminated if you're tossed over the top rope and both feet land on the floor.

00:46:15Just like The Royal Rumble.

00:46:45All four men still in the ring.

00:46:47And they're on tonight for the title.

00:46:48Well, that's the unusual wrestling attire The Undertaker's wearing.

00:46:53The Undertaker bandana over his head.

00:46:56About to climb.

00:46:57Well, thought he was going up the steps, but.

00:47:03The Undertaker.

00:47:04Oh, wait a minute.

00:47:05Heading over this way.

00:47:05What in the world are you going to come over here for?

00:47:08I don't know, but he's certainly welcome.

00:47:10Well, all four men in the ring in this Royal Rumble Rules match, we've been joined here at ringside by

00:47:14The Undertaker.

00:47:15Well, perhaps Undertaker, maybe you're Triple H's opponent later tonight.

00:47:19You, you don't want to wear yourself down before the championship match.

00:47:23Well, it doesn't.

00:47:24No!

00:47:25Triple H has a lot of things to worry about.

00:47:30What Triple H needs to worry about are the sledgehammers that he hit Kane and Big Show with.

00:47:36Uh-oh, look at the Big Show.

00:47:37Look at the, oh!

00:47:38Oh, blow by the rock!

00:47:39And here's Kane now, going to work on Mankind and the Big Show.

00:47:44Look how much more dominant Kane is now that the toothpick isn't with him.

00:47:48You know what's becoming?

00:47:49What's becoming to happen here is Kane is turned into a killer.

00:47:54Well, that's good.

00:47:55The Undertaker talking about X-Pac as he called him the toothpick.

00:47:58But Undertaker, I mean, what is your relationship now with Kane?

00:48:02I mean, we've seen you making overtures toward him in the past couple of weeks.

00:48:05Look out, Kane!

00:48:06Oh, look out!

00:48:07I propose, don't worry about Kane.

00:48:08Kane has been eliminated!

00:48:10Did you see that?

00:48:11Over the top, bro!

00:48:12Kane's been eliminated!

00:48:13Oh!

00:48:14Mankind!

00:48:15So do it.

00:48:17Uh-oh.

00:48:17And the rock just eliminated his buddy, Mankind!

00:48:20Talking him over the top rope!

00:48:22Rock going for the ride!

00:48:23Rock's not so tough now, is he?

00:48:25He was out here running his mouth, and now he's getting his ass kicked.

00:48:29That's why he is the phony tough and crazy brave.

00:48:34What's happening to that mean streak, that killer instinct that the Big Show needs, Undertaker?

00:48:39Sometimes he has lapses, but he's going to get it together.

00:48:42Now he's going to drop Rock over, and now you will see he has the power.

00:48:48There it is.

00:48:48But the rock is hanging out!

00:48:50The rock pulled himself back to the ring!

00:48:52The Big Show doesn't see him!

00:48:53And here comes the rock now!

00:48:54You know, if you want something done, you've got to do it yourself.

00:48:57Oh, my goodness!

00:48:58This is why I am the power.

00:49:01Well, The Undertaker is going to take matters into his own hands.

00:49:05What does he mean?

00:49:05Well, keep in mind, King, The Undertaker.

00:49:08He's officially in this match!

00:49:09He's officially part of this match!

00:49:10Look at this!

00:49:11Look at this!

00:49:11He tossed Big Show and the rock over the top rock!

00:49:16The Undertaker has won the Royal World of the World match!

00:49:19The Undertaker!

00:49:22And the Big Show is not happy!

00:49:24You've got to see the look on the face of the Big Show King!

00:49:29And here comes Midian and Viscera now!

00:49:31Members of that Undertaker's ministry of darkness in the past!

00:49:36Uh-oh, look at this standoff, look at it!

00:49:38And Viscera stands in front of The Undertaker!

00:49:40The Big Show is livid!

00:49:42The Undertaker not only eliminated The Rock, but eliminating his disciple, The Big Show!

00:49:48And Rock's got a chair!

00:49:50Oh, my God!

00:49:52Watch it!

00:49:52And Rock, Midian and Viscera!

00:49:55And Big Show with a kick to the chair, knocking Rock down!

00:49:58Oh, my gosh!

00:50:00And look at The Undertaker now barking instructions to Midian and Viscera in The Big Show!

00:50:06This is a three-on-one!

00:50:08They're all putting the boots to The Rock!

00:50:10Oh, my God!

00:50:11Oh, my gosh!

00:50:12Oh, my!

00:50:13500 pounds crushing The Rock's chest!

00:50:18Coming up a week from this Sunday on Pay-Per-View and Unforgiven,

00:50:23The Undertaker will be in the ring with the WWF Champion first

00:50:27in the six-pack challenge for the World Wrestling Federation title!

00:50:32But right now, we don't know exactly who the WWF Champion is going to be!

00:50:37Here are the Hollies!

00:50:41Here come the super heavyweights!

00:50:45And we're back on SmackDown here on UPN!

00:50:48Here come the Cousins, Hardcore and Crash Holly!

00:50:51And both still to come tonight, Triple H defends the WWF title, but against two!

00:50:58Well, tonight, WWF SmackDown is brought to you by the Motor Oil that provides maximum protection!

00:51:04The Castro GTX, right on!

00:51:06And by Burger King, when you're heading your way, it just tastes better!

00:51:10And by Melky Way, introducing the best caramel ever, and the new best ever, Melky Way!

00:51:15Melky!

00:51:18Let's play it!

00:51:20Okay, Chyna, time's up!

00:51:23You've had plenty of time to find you a tag team partner!

00:51:27So why don't you come out here and let me do to you what I should have done last week!

00:51:35Now don't get me wrong!

00:51:37Hey, the wrestling ring ain't no place for a woman!

00:51:40Well, here we go now!

00:51:42Chyna is accepting this challenge for a tag team match against the Hollies!

00:51:47Crash and hardcore!

00:51:49The only question is, who's Chyna going to bring to Ellers?

00:51:52Well, it's not going to be Triple H, that's for sure, he's got a title defense tonight!

00:51:56Yeah, here comes tonight's wonder of a world designer, but...

00:52:00Okay.

00:52:02Chyna on a way to the race kick!

00:52:04I know another person who's Chyna's partner is now going to be!

00:52:07What's that?

00:52:08Don't go, Steve-Own!

00:52:09He's still stalking back there!

00:52:12Triple H is surrounded by a sea of blue in the back!

00:52:15Security officers all around Triple H!

00:52:19That's no-told Steve Austin, Starkman champion!

00:52:22The Rattlesnake promising to get at Triple H at some point tonight on SmackDown!

00:52:28Who's your tag team partner?

00:52:31Oh, tough guy!

00:52:32Oh, excuse me!

00:52:33Tough girl!

00:52:35You're going to find out what it's like to be in the ring with Hardcore!

00:52:39Well, Chyna said she didn't need a tag team partner!

00:52:42She's going to take on Hardcore and Crash by herself!

00:52:46We got a match!

00:52:47Well, perhaps this is a message to Jeff Jarrett King!

00:52:50Chyna will meet Jarrett at Unforgiven a week from this Sunday on Pay-Per-View from Charlotte,

00:52:55North Carolina for the Intercontinental title!

00:52:57Uh-oh!

00:52:58And we've seen Jeff Jarrett sending messages over the past couple of weeks with heinous attacks!

00:53:04Well, Chyna just sent a right hand into the nose of Crash Hawley!

00:53:07Still can't believe what Jeff Jarrett did earlier tonight!

00:53:10Figure 4 leg lock on Cindy Margolis!

00:53:16And here's Hardcore telling Crash, let me have this one!

00:53:21And Hardcore now going to work for the ninth one to the world, Chyna!

00:53:23Oh!

00:53:26Chyna, I guess, doesn't really quite fit that Hawley super heavyweight material, but she's holding her own here!

00:53:34Hardcore whips off the rope, catches an elbow now to the face!

00:53:36And the Hawleys, well, they may have gotten into something here a little bit over their head!

00:53:44Come on, get out!

00:53:46That's my favorite outfit of all that Chyna wears!

00:53:49Oh, look at this!

00:53:50Oh!

00:53:51What a blow by Chyna!

00:53:52Crash Hawley!

00:53:53See if Hardcore was all right!

00:53:55And look, did you notice who this official is?

00:53:58It's Earl Hebner, the chief of...

00:54:00No, it isn't Earl!

00:54:01I didn't say it was Earl, it's Earl's twin brother, Dave!

00:54:04That's right, Dave Hebner.

00:54:05He's been rehired.

00:54:06He's a former referee.

00:54:08He's a road agent now for the World Wrestling Federation.

00:54:10He's the twin brother of Earl.

00:54:12Earl Hebner is out on the picket line for the rest of the World Wrestling Federation official.

00:54:17Uh-oh.

00:54:17Look at this!

00:54:18Hey!

00:54:19Mr. Rouse is here!

00:54:21And Mr. Rouse now...

00:54:25He's getting to Chyna's corner, King!

00:54:28Is he volunteering to be Chyna's partner?

00:54:30Well, that's what it looks like.

00:54:31You know, there's been serious issues between Chyna and Mr. Rouse over the past couple of weeks.

00:54:36Mr. Rouse upset that Chyna basically duped him out of the number one contendership for the Intercontinental title.

00:54:42Clothesline by Crash Hawley.

00:54:46The Super Heavyweight Cousin Crash.

00:54:50Chyna Intercontinental title shot at Unforgiven September 26, Charlotte, North Carolina against Jeff Jarrett.

00:54:58It's going to be one of the biggest pay-per-views we've ever had.

00:55:01Six-pack challenge for the World Wrestling Federation title as well announced this week on WWF.com.

00:55:07That's the first time in history for a six-pack challenge match.

00:55:10Uh-oh, look at this!

00:55:11Oh, my!

00:55:12Hardcore Hawley mouthed off to Mr. Rouse and paid for it.

00:55:15Chyna planting him with a DDT.

00:55:18I'll tell you what.

00:55:19Chyna could become the first woman to win the Intercontinental Championship at Unforgiven.

00:55:24You're in Vegas, but I wouldn't bet on that.

00:55:26Look at that now!

00:55:28Mr. Rouse with a blind tag.

00:55:30Chyna didn't see it.

00:55:31Here we go!

00:55:32Mr. Rouse cleaning house!

00:55:33What?

00:55:34Hardcore Hawley off the ropes now.

00:55:36He's back in front by Mr. Rouse.

00:55:39And Crash Hawley, I think, is going to go for a ride as well.

00:55:41And Mr. Rouse now on fire.

00:55:44Chyna didn't want to tag him in, so Mr. Rouse took matters into his own.

00:55:47And bam!

00:55:48It was over!

00:55:49Gordon!

00:55:50Hook to the leg!

00:55:51Here's the count now!

00:55:52And it's over!

00:55:54I'm a mess, man!

00:55:56Here are your winners!

00:55:57And Chyna didn't like that!

00:55:59And Mr. Rouse, take up the win!

00:56:02And now Chyna and Mr. Rouse, take up the win!

00:56:03Last time in the world!

00:56:04Yeah, Chyna and Mr. Rouse!

00:56:05Oh!

00:56:06It's Jeff Jarrett from behind with a frying pan!

00:56:10Jeff Jarrett with a frying pan!

00:56:12Attacked Chyna from behind!

00:56:14And look who's coming!

00:56:17It's Debra and Miss Kitty!

00:56:19Oh, the puppies and the kittens!

00:56:20And Miss Kitty with a present for Jeff Jarrett!

00:56:24They have smiles on their faces!

00:56:28Debra and Miss Kitty, part of Jarrett Enterprises,

00:56:30and Jarrett just knocked Chyna out cold with a frying pan to the back!

00:56:35What's in the bag?

00:56:37Oh, come on!

00:56:39Is that an apron?

00:56:40Yeah, it's an apron!

00:56:42And Jeff Jarrett's humiliating Chyna!

00:56:45Oh, I get it!

00:56:47Look at this!

00:56:47Yeah, you get it!

00:56:48Why don't you explain it to all of us, King?

00:56:50What do you got to explain that for?

00:56:51What's wrong with a woman wearing an apron and having a frying pan in her hand?

00:56:54Well, don't worry.

00:56:55I'm sure we're getting an explanation.

00:56:56Chyna!

00:56:58You've got the frying pan in one hand, the soup ladle in the other hand,

00:57:04and your cooking apron on.

00:57:06There's only one thing left to do,

00:57:08and that's get your ass in the kitchen and start fixing my supper.

00:57:13Oh, my God.

00:57:14Jeff Jarrett's pushing the envelope now.

00:57:16He went too far on this one.

00:57:19Jeff Jarrett with a frying pan to the back of Chyna!

00:57:24And then humiliating the ninth winner of the world by placing an apron on her!

00:57:29And unforgiven, it's Chyna, Jarrett, for the Intercontinental title!

00:57:34Right now, let's head back to Lillian Garcia!

00:57:37Now, boss man, pepper on a pole, isn't that just going a little too far?

00:57:42Not too far.

00:57:43What I have here is the last of the deep-fried remains of that stupid dog, Pepper.

00:57:48So Al Snow better be hungry, because after I get through kicking his ass,

00:57:52I'm going to climb that pole, grab that bag,

00:57:55and take what's left of this dirty dog meat

00:57:57and shove it right down his freaking throat!

00:58:01A pepper on a pole mat?

00:58:03Pepper's remains in that doggy bag?

00:58:06I know burgers!

00:58:07Oh, man.

00:58:08Well, folks, boss man versus Al Snow,

00:58:10but still to come tonight, Triple H defends the WWF title, but to get two?

00:58:15I don't know, but I'm still thinking about Grin-Tin-Tin's fondue.

00:58:18Oh.

00:58:19Twelve on a stick!

00:58:21Ah!

00:58:23Following, Constance is a pepper on a pole match.

00:58:27Vicki is way to the ring from Cobb County, Georgia,

00:58:31weighing it at 312 pounds,

00:58:34the Big Boss Man!

00:58:37And the interim rep for this matchup is going to be none other than Sergeant Slaughter.

00:58:42Sergeant Slaughter!

00:58:43Look at the size of him!

00:58:44He looks like he's had a few glassy sandwiches himself!

00:58:47You know, the Big Boss Man this past Monday on Raw

00:58:49accepted a kennel-from-hell match against Al Snow

00:58:54September 26th at Unforgiven.

00:58:56Going to be a cage around the rings and the hell in a cell around that,

00:59:00and in between the two cages,

00:59:03Rottweilers!

00:59:04And mean ones!

00:59:07So this is a pepper on a pole match,

00:59:09and the object's pretty simple.

00:59:12The first man to climb that pole and get the remains of

00:59:15Pepper in that doggy bag.

00:59:17What does everybody want?

00:59:17He can land on the mat with it.

00:59:20And they end up winning.

00:59:21His opponent, Brooklyn Ohio, weighing it at 200.

00:59:25Oh, wait a minute, Al Snow not waiting here.

00:59:27And here we go!

00:59:28Boss Man and Al Snow, Pepper on a pole match.

00:59:31And Al Snow hammering away on the Big Boss Man.

00:59:34A lot of pent-up frustrations in Al Snow,

00:59:36and he wants to put a hurt now on the Boss Man.

00:59:40And he looks up on the top of that pole and sees what's left of him.

00:59:44Poor little Pepper.

00:59:45Oh!

00:59:45Al Snow is the current hardcore champion.

00:59:48Yeah!

00:59:49There he is!

00:59:50And now he's going to climb that pole and get the pepper.

00:59:52Here, boy!

00:59:56And Boss Man heads him off at the pass now.

00:59:58Harriman away with those right hands.

01:00:00Al Snow whipped across the ring.

01:00:01Boss Man misses with that clothesline attempt.

01:00:03And Al Snow now headbutts the chest of Boss Man.

01:00:09And here's Boss Man now, whipped off the rope.

01:00:12Hits back by Al Rock.

01:00:13Al Snow focusing totally on destroying the Boss Man in this matchup.

01:00:19It was the return of the British Bulldog last week on SmackDown.

01:00:23Bulldog defeating Boss Man for the hardcore title

01:00:25and then turning it over to Al Snow.

01:00:27And now Al Snow tries to climb that pole to get to the remains of Pepper.

01:00:33Spooks to the face now by Boss Man.

01:00:35Speaking of remains, that stain is still in my coat.

01:00:38Look out!

01:00:39Oh, and it smells like it!

01:00:40Look at that!

01:00:41Boss Man has strength!

01:00:42Beautiful!

01:00:43He caught Al Snow in midair and slammed him to the mat.

01:00:48And unforgiving the hardcore title on the line, the kennel from hell match.

01:00:52And now Boss Man with that nightstick to the gut now of Al Snow.

01:01:01All this is legal because all you have to do is get that doggy bag off that pole.

01:01:06Doggy bag.

01:01:07You've got to return to the floor with it as Boss Man now climbs the pole.

01:01:10Al Snow in pain, agony after receiving that nightstick shot to the gut.

01:01:15You think you've got a stomachache now when you eat one?

01:01:17Wait a minute!

01:01:17Kane!

01:01:18Huh?

01:01:19Here come, here come those Rottweilers!

01:01:21Oh my gosh!

01:01:22The British Bulldogs win them!

01:01:24The Bulldog and Rottweilers coming to the ring!

01:01:27Wait a minute!

01:01:28Get on!

01:01:28These dogs are dangerous!

01:01:29Yeah, they're dangerous, all right!

01:01:31But this is what the Boss Man's going to have to contend with at Unforgiven.

01:01:35Wrapping his dogs are going to surround the ring in between the cages at Unforgiven.

01:01:41And the dogs have treed a Boss Man here!

01:01:44What are you going to do, Boss Man?

01:01:45Look out!

01:01:46Look out!

01:01:47Those Rottweilers have treed the big Boss Man!

01:01:50And Boss Man has that doggy bag!

01:01:53Wait a minute!

01:01:53And he just flew it across the ring!

01:01:55Wait a minute!

01:01:55Tossed it to the floor!

01:01:56Let me talk to those dogs!

01:01:57Stai!

01:01:58Stai!

01:01:59Hey, King!

01:02:00The referee's called for the bell!

01:02:02Look out there, Al Gore!

01:02:03Snow's won this thing!

01:02:06And look at that guy!

01:02:08Here's the Boss Man!

01:02:10And Al Snow!

01:02:11The Rottweiler chasing the Boss Man into the crowd!

01:02:14Nipping in his heels!

01:02:15I think both men wearing milk-billed underwear!

01:02:17Well, Boss Man got the doggy bag, but he tossed it out of the ring in the rules of the

01:02:21match!

01:02:22We're the first person to get the doggy bag and land on the floor to win!

01:02:27Al Snow wins!

01:02:28And Al Snow has been reunited with the remains of his French Pepper!

01:02:33This is China!

01:02:34Tonight we're going to make this trip!

01:02:36And I'll tell you what!

01:02:38I'll tell you what!

01:02:39I'll tell you what we're going to do!

01:02:40Hey, King!

01:02:40King, look!

01:02:41Look, that's...

01:02:42That's Stone Cold!

01:02:43Stone Cold!

01:02:44Lurking in the shadows!

01:02:47This is the Smack of the Night presented by Duke Nukem Zero Hour for Nintendo 64!

01:02:52The King of Carnage is back and this is his finest hour!

01:02:55Oh, wait a minute now!

01:02:57What's he doing out here?

01:02:58Look at him!

01:02:59What the hell is Jared doing?

01:03:00No, it's a figure for us!

01:03:01Sidney Margolis!

01:03:02Look at this!

01:03:03He's got the figure for us!

01:03:05Sidney Margolis is an innocent victim!

01:03:07My standard here, King!

01:03:08That's not Mae Young he's got now!

01:03:10Oh, look!

01:03:14We're back on SmackDown!

01:03:16On UPN!

01:03:18Oh, boy!

01:03:18It's puppies and kitty time!

01:03:21Hey!

01:03:23He's the Intercontinental Champion, Jeff Jarrett!

01:03:25Folks, you just saw earlier tonight what happened with Jeff Jarrett putting Sidney Margolis in a figure four!

01:03:31She was intended to do by EMT's backstage!

01:03:34Jarrett continued to verbally assault her!

01:03:37Well, Tess was nearby and took offense to that!

01:03:40And Jarrett has challenged Tess to this matchup tonight!

01:03:43Oh, baby!

01:03:44The pooling contest is scheduled for one fall and it's for the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Championship!

01:03:50In the ring from the great state of Tennessee, weighing in at 241 pounds, the Intercontinental Champion, Jeff Jarrett!

01:03:59Oh, I look over at you, Michael Gold!

01:04:00And he's being accompanied by Miss Kitty and Debra!

01:04:04I can't help but, I can't help but wish I had an assistant like Miss, or like Debra has!

01:04:10Look at Miss Kitty!

01:04:11You think she's one of her nine lives with me?

01:04:13An assistant!

01:04:14Woo!

01:04:15And here comes Tess!

01:04:20He's not going to waste any time here!

01:04:22Uh-oh!

01:04:23Here we go now!

01:04:24Jeff Jarrett hammering away on Tess!

01:04:26The challenge was made by Jarrett!

01:04:28And Jarrett now with a vicious assault on Tess!

01:04:33It's next Sunday!

01:04:35A week from this Sunday on Pay-Per-View at Unforgiven!

01:04:38Jeff Jarrett takes on China!

01:04:40The Intercontinental title will be on the line!

01:04:43You know what?

01:04:44Tess should just mind his own business and worry about his post, his marriage!

01:04:47Sidewalk slam now!

01:04:49Hook to the leg by Tess and a kick-out!

01:04:51Tess and Stephanie McMahon to win October 11th!

01:04:55Live on Roy's war, and what a wedding that's going to be!

01:04:58Jarrett telegraphed it, and look at Tess now capitalizing!

01:05:01You know what Tess should have been doing today instead of worrying about Jeff Jarrett?

01:05:04Here's a cover now!

01:05:05Two and a kick-out!

01:05:06Ooh, I love it when the puppies are on!

01:05:07Wait a minute!

01:05:08Puppies almost popped out!

01:05:09Wait a minute, King!

01:05:11Pete Gass and Rodney down to the ring!

01:05:14Obviously still unfinished business with Tess!

01:05:16And Jeff Jarrett takes advantage!

01:05:18Tess was distracted!

01:05:20You saw the posse and...

01:05:23Well, it's like I said, Tess should be worried about his marriage instead of all of these

01:05:26other distractions!

01:05:27He should have been over at Caesars Palace, the forum shop, picking out some, well, some

01:05:31sheets and some china and all that sort of stuff!

01:05:34Oh, what a drop kick by Jarrett!

01:05:35Beautiful!

01:05:36You see Rodney and Pete Gass at ringside, hook and legs by Jarrett!

01:05:39Kick out by Tess!

01:05:40All I can see at ringside are puppies and kiddies!

01:05:42Joey Abbe's not out there because Shane took care of Joey Abbe earlier on tonight!

01:05:48Come here!

01:05:49Shane McMahon warned his former friends, the posse, to stay away from Tess and Stephanie,

01:05:54and obviously they haven't heeded the warning!

01:05:56Oh, there's the champion now with a clothesline for the second rope!

01:05:59Right there!

01:06:00Speaking of champions, who's the champion, the WWF champion, Triple H, gonna face here

01:06:05tonight on SmackDown?

01:06:07We still don't know who his opponent is, but we do know he's being stalked by Stone Cold!

01:06:11What a maneuver by Tess!

01:06:13Hook of the leg now, referee Mark Yeaton!

01:06:15An interim ref here, distracted by Rodney and the posse, and Jarrett takes advantage!

01:06:21And Stephanie McMahon has come down to the ring, and he just, she just pulled Rodney off the apron!

01:06:28Look at this!

01:06:29Whoa!

01:06:29Pete Gass doing an upper-rime test now, and Stephanie and Rodney now, and they're not getting outside

01:06:35the ring, and he's going to see this!

01:06:38And there's Shane, Shane McMahon down, and he just clawing Rodney!

01:06:43Shane coming to the aid of his sister!

01:06:46What I want to tell you is that Tess is hurt right now, it's the Stooges, Harrison and Frisco!

01:06:50Show him!

01:06:51He's the act!

01:06:53And Tess and Jarrett still going out of the ring!

01:06:57Referee calls for the bell!

01:07:00And Shane McMahon doing a number on Rodney!

01:07:04Shane McMahon coming to the aid of his sister!

01:07:06Let's keep the puppies and kittens out of harm's way!

01:07:09Rodney was mouthing off the step of the outside the ring, and Shane McMahon rushed out to his

01:07:14sister's aid!

01:07:17And they're still going at a test with a right hand!

01:07:20I'm telling you, I don't see how Tess is even moving his shoulder!

01:07:22It would have been broken up!

01:07:24Look at that!

01:07:25Tess was slammed into those steel stairs!

01:07:27Look at Sean Stacey!

01:07:29And look at Jeff Jarrett now!

01:07:31The referee's already called for the bell!

01:07:34Oh my!

01:07:35Jarrett may have pulled that shoulder right out of its socket!

01:07:38The one that got rammed right into those steel steps!

01:07:41Now Stephanie McMahon's in the ring!

01:07:43Stephanie's in the ring!

01:07:44It's coming to the aid of Tess!

01:07:47She's over her!

01:07:48No!

01:07:49Jeff Jarrett!

01:07:50You see, we wouldn't do this!

01:07:53Damn it, he wouldn't do this!

01:07:54No way!

01:07:55And Shane McMahon's in the ring!

01:07:57Shane's in the ring!

01:07:58Oh, Jeff Jarrett!

01:07:59I can't believe it!

01:08:00Get away, Jeff!

01:08:01What is going on here?

01:08:02Shane McMahon!

01:08:03Preventing Jeff Jarrett from putting that figure four on Stephanie!

01:08:08Well, Jeff Jarrett really stepped over the bounds there!

01:08:12But out passing is Jeff Jarrett injured Tess!

01:08:16Tess thriving in agony!

01:08:20Shane McMahon coming to the aid of his sister Stephanie!

01:08:24And there's the WWF Champion!

01:08:27Flanked by China and a sea of blue!

01:08:29He'll defend the title!

01:08:31But who will his opponent be?

01:08:35Well, thanks for joining us on SmackDown!

01:08:37We're here every Thursday night on UPN!

01:08:40And next week coming your way from Reunion Arena in Dallas, Texas!

01:08:45Triple H getting instructions to that security force there!

01:08:49Stone Cold Steve Austin has been stalking Triple H tonight!

01:08:53The Rattlespace promising to get to Triple H before the night is out!

01:08:58And folks, Magic the Gathering presents WWF Unforgiven!

01:09:02Live on Pay Per View from the Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina!

01:09:06One week from this Sunday!

01:09:08Magic the Gathering, the trading card game, the ultimate battle of wins!

01:09:13And Triple H, the WWF Champion!

01:09:18When there's Stephanie concerned over her injured fiancé, Tess!

01:09:22They're leaving the Thomas and Max Center!

01:09:24I knew Tess's shoulder was messed up bad!

01:09:28Familiar chance for the WWF Champion, Triple H!

01:09:32How about telling him to show some respect, Michael Cole?

01:09:34This guy's a champ!

01:09:36Now, before I'm forced to defend my WWF Championship,

01:09:44Forced?

01:09:46I have at least been given the right

01:09:50to choose the referee of my choice.

01:09:58So, I have gone through the trouble of finding somebody

01:10:01with a vested interest in this.

01:10:04Somebody who will call it right down the middle.

01:10:08Shane McMahon, if you do me the honors!

01:10:11What?

01:10:12Shane McMahon?

01:10:15Can I see Shane McMahon?

01:10:16Shane, I know you're back there.

01:10:19Please come out here and be my referee.

01:10:22Well, the referees are on strike,

01:10:24so I guess Triple H is making a special request here.

01:10:28Are you sure you...

01:10:29I'm up for it.

01:10:30You're up for this?

01:10:31Yeah, I'm up for it.

01:10:32Are you sure this is what you want to do?

01:10:33Yeah.

01:10:34It's like there it is.

01:10:37So, Shane McMahon's agreed

01:10:41to work as a special referee for this match,

01:10:44Triple H,

01:10:44defending the World Wrestling Federation Championship.

01:10:47Remember, the WWF referees are on strike,

01:10:50but, King, we still don't know

01:10:51who Triple H's opponent's gonna be.

01:10:53Well, we do know that Shane's already been through

01:10:54quite a battle here tonight,

01:10:56but I guess he's still up to referee in another one.

01:10:59No chance.

01:11:00Shane McMahon will be the special guest referee.

01:11:05And the security allowing Shane McMahon

01:11:07to clear on his path to the ring.

01:11:10Yeah, I thought they were gonna freeze him for a minute

01:11:12or make him go through a medal detector.

01:11:14Well, you know, Shane McMahon and Triple H

01:11:15have shared much in recent months.

01:11:19Shane McMahon looks very instrumental

01:11:22and helping Triple H get a title shot

01:11:25and helping him to finally become WWF champion.

01:11:30Now,

01:11:32here's what we've been waiting for.

01:11:33There are numerous

01:11:37superstars here in the World Wrestling Federation

01:11:39that could be considered

01:11:42for a title shot tonight.

01:11:47gentlemen such as

01:11:49The Undertaker.

01:11:51Oh, I knew it.

01:11:52Yep, The Phenom.

01:11:54Well, Taker,

01:11:55as much as you and I

01:11:57would like to rip each other's hearts out,

01:12:01I'm gonna beat you to the punch

01:12:02and do it for ya.

01:12:04It's not you.

01:12:06What?

01:12:06Well, it's one person down,

01:12:07then who is it then?

01:12:09I knew it wasn't The Undertaker.

01:12:10Or The Big Show.

01:12:12Yep.

01:12:13Well, I dashed his pea brain in

01:12:15with a sledgehammer already.

01:12:17What else more could I do?

01:12:19You're out.

01:12:21Well, The Big Show's been

01:12:22eliminated, so to speak.

01:12:24Yeah, I knew it.

01:12:26You know, with the divorce

01:12:28of you and X-Pac and all,

01:12:29I'd hate to put you through the misery

01:12:31of beating your red ass again.

01:12:34I'll take a pass on you, too.

01:12:36I could have told you

01:12:37it wasn't gonna be Kane.

01:12:38Well, who is it then?

01:12:39Mankind!

01:12:40That's him!

01:12:41It's Mankind!

01:12:42I knew it!

01:12:42Go play with your sock!

01:12:44Uh-oh.

01:12:46I knew it wasn't him.

01:12:48You just said you knew it was.

01:12:49Let me see.

01:12:50Who does that leave?

01:12:52The Rock!

01:12:53The Rock!

01:12:54That's right!

01:12:56Oh, yeah, the people's ass!

01:12:58Ooh!

01:12:59Ooh!

01:13:01Well, Rock,

01:13:02you seem to have

01:13:03some sort of fascination

01:13:05with inserting things

01:13:07into people's rectums.

01:13:10So I'm gonna let you get

01:13:11real close to mine.

01:13:13Kiss my ass, Rock!

01:13:14It's not you!

01:13:15Well, then who the hell is it?

01:13:17Told you it wasn't gonna be The Rock!

01:13:20It has to be someone

01:13:21who's been in a main event

01:13:22with Austin!

01:13:22Who's been in a main event?

01:13:23Nah.

01:13:25This person's somebody special.

01:13:31This is an individual

01:13:33who is playing in a game

01:13:35that he wants

01:13:37no part of!

01:13:39Who could it be?

01:13:40I have no clue.

01:13:42This is an individual

01:13:47who wants to be a hero.

01:13:53An individual

01:13:54who has taken it upon himself

01:13:56to come into this very ring

01:13:57and try to steal

01:13:59my glory,

01:14:00my thunder!

01:14:02I think it's Y2J, maybe?

01:14:05I can't even venture a guess

01:14:07at this point.

01:14:08Maybe the Bulldog!

01:14:09And this is an individual

01:14:11with bulls the size of grapefruits!

01:14:15Me?

01:14:16He's not talking about you.

01:14:22Vince!

01:14:24What?

01:14:26Wait a minute.

01:14:27You wanna be a hero, Jack?

01:14:30Vince!

01:14:32You wanna be a hero

01:14:33to your old lady?

01:14:35You wanna be a star?

01:14:38You wanna be somebody?

01:14:41Well, I'm gonna give you

01:14:43a chance to be your hero, Vince.

01:14:46I'm gonna give you a chance

01:14:47to be her champion!

01:14:50No, I don't believe

01:14:51what I'm hearing here, Michael.

01:14:52I don't either.

01:14:53Because I've had enough.

01:14:55And the fact of the matter is

01:14:58I will put this

01:15:00on the line

01:15:02to get a piece of your ass!

01:15:04Triple H is challenged this!

01:15:05What do you say, old man?

01:15:09Oh, Vince has

01:15:10been in the ring

01:15:11with Stone Cold.

01:15:14It was Vince McMahon!

01:15:16Come on, Vince.

01:15:18I know she's waiting

01:15:19next to you.

01:15:21She's looking at you.

01:15:22Please be my hero, Vince.

01:15:24Please!

01:15:28What are you, chicken s***, Vince?

01:15:30Come on!

01:15:33I'm pulling your plug card, Vince!

01:15:36It's down to the ground!

01:15:37I'm calling you out!

01:15:38You got bulls***!

01:15:40Bring him!

01:15:41This is personal for Triple H.

01:15:43Shane McMahon can't even believe it.

01:15:45How about you, Linda?

01:15:46You might not be able

01:15:48to handle the game,

01:15:49but I'll at least let you

01:15:50ride my bench.

01:15:52What's he trying to prove?

01:15:54Uh-oh, wait a minute.

01:15:55That's it!

01:15:56I think Triple H has pushed the cord.

01:15:58Take a deep breath,

01:16:00suck him in one time,

01:16:01and make the walk.

01:16:07Is Vince going to accept King?

01:16:09Is he going to do it?

01:16:11There you go!

01:16:15Vince McMahon's heard enough.

01:16:18Well, this will be a big mistake

01:16:19if Vince comes out here.

01:16:20I don't think he's going

01:16:21to come out here.

01:16:22I think he's just heard enough.

01:16:25Triple H, a verbal tirade

01:16:28on Vince and Linda McMahon.

01:16:29Come on, move your crotchety old ass,

01:16:31Vince, and get in here.

01:16:32I ain't got all day.

01:16:33Well, this is putting Shane

01:16:34in a tough spot, too.

01:16:36And Shane's the special guest

01:16:37referee for this match.

01:16:39Triple H has challenged

01:16:40Shane's father, Vince McMahon.

01:16:44Well, I don't think Shane

01:16:45would have agreed to come out here

01:16:46if he'd known Triple H

01:16:47was going to challenge Vince.

01:16:49Well, I don't think so, either.

01:16:53Well, there's Vince McMahon,

01:16:55the owner of the

01:16:56World Wrestling Federation.

01:17:02Walking past that sea of security,

01:17:04and Vince has had enough.

01:17:05He's just going to

01:17:07perhaps address this issue.

01:17:08Come on, tough guy.

01:17:09But who knows?

01:17:10I mean, I have no idea

01:17:10what the owner's going to do here.

01:17:13Well, I would say

01:17:14since he's got a

01:17:16take a microphone in his hand,

01:17:18he's going to

01:17:19I would think he might

01:17:20just read Triple H,

01:17:22the riot act here.

01:17:23Let's face it.

01:17:25That's Vince McMahon.

01:17:27Well, Monday night,

01:17:28you know, Triple H

01:17:28insulted Vince's wife, Linda.

01:17:30Uh-oh.

01:17:31Here we go.

01:17:31Let's go to the back.

01:17:32All right.

01:17:33Let's just go to the back

01:17:34and discuss this

01:17:35like business people.

01:17:36All right.

01:17:36No, no, no, no.

01:17:38I am done

01:17:39talking to you.

01:17:41The talking is over.

01:17:43It's go time.

01:17:45You and me

01:17:46right now.

01:17:49And again,

01:17:50the challenge issue.

01:17:51Listen, last Monday

01:17:53was personal,

01:17:54but I gave my word

01:17:55I would not interfere

01:17:56in WWF business.

01:17:58You're talking this

01:17:59WWF championship match

01:18:01and all of this crap.

01:18:03That's business.

01:18:04I will have nothing

01:18:05to do with that.

01:18:07But I do warn you,

01:18:09don't make this

01:18:09two-person.

01:18:13What's the matter?

01:18:14You haven't got the

01:18:15what happened to the man

01:18:18with the ball

01:18:18the size of grapefruits,

01:18:19Vince?

01:18:21What happened to him?

01:18:23I am calling you out.

01:18:33No.

01:18:36Well, that was

01:18:37rather emphatic.

01:18:39Yeah, that's it.

01:18:40You go in the back

01:18:42and you hide behind

01:18:43your skirt.

01:18:45Go ahead.

01:18:47Go hide behind

01:18:47your skirt.

01:18:49But you tell

01:18:50your sexually

01:18:51frustrated wife

01:18:52that if you can't

01:18:54get the job done,

01:18:56Triple H

01:18:57can keep it up

01:18:58all night for her.

01:19:03Wait a minute.

01:19:05It fits from behind.

01:19:06This is personal

01:19:07for Vince McMahon.

01:19:09Vince McMahon

01:19:09is hurt.

01:19:10Can't believe it.

01:19:13And the bell sounded.

01:19:14King of the match

01:19:15is underway.

01:19:16The WWF title

01:19:18is on the line

01:19:18and Triple H

01:19:20hammering away

01:19:21at the owner

01:19:21of this company.

01:19:22Are you telling me

01:19:23this is an actual match?

01:19:24This is an actual match.

01:19:25It's Shane McMahon

01:19:26is the actual referee.

01:19:29And Triple H

01:19:30hammering away.

01:19:32Well, I'm afraid

01:19:33this is not going

01:19:34to be much of a match.

01:19:34I knew this was

01:19:35a mistake for Vince

01:19:36to come out here.

01:19:37Well, you know,

01:19:37Vince McMahon

01:19:38suffered a serious

01:19:39motorcycle accident

01:19:40in this summer, King.

01:19:41Injured his pelvis,

01:19:43his tailbone.

01:19:44He's in no shape

01:19:45to be in this match

01:19:45right now.

01:19:46And Triple H

01:19:47is just hammering away

01:19:48on Vince McMahon.

01:19:50Plus the fact

01:19:50he's 54 years old.

01:19:52I mean, you can't blame

01:19:53Vince, though,

01:19:54for going after Triple H.

01:19:56Triple H just pushed

01:19:56the envelope.

01:19:57Just said one thing wrong.

01:19:59That last thing he said

01:20:00insulting Vince

01:20:01and Linda McMahon.

01:20:03And here's Vince now.

01:20:05Hammering back

01:20:05with the right hand.

01:20:06And Triple H.

01:20:09Well, I'm going to tell you,

01:20:11you know,

01:20:11a lot of people

01:20:12feel different ways

01:20:13about Vince McMahon

01:20:14whether you like him

01:20:15or not.

01:20:16You got to admire his gun.

01:20:17He's just out of his league

01:20:19physically here.

01:20:19King, what is Triple H

01:20:20trying to prove?

01:20:22What in the world

01:20:22is he trying to do?

01:20:23He's trying to gain respect

01:20:24as the WWF champion.

01:20:26In my book,

01:20:27he's not doing that.

01:20:28He's trying to prove

01:20:28he's the game.

01:20:29That's what he's saying.

01:20:30He's the game against

01:20:31the owner that's 40,

01:20:3250, 40, 50, 50.

01:20:34I think that Triple H

01:20:35wants to prove

01:20:36he's the most powerful

01:20:37man in this business today.

01:20:39Come on, Pac,

01:20:39put your hands up.

01:20:40Well, Vince McMahon

01:20:40just trying to prove

01:20:41he was going to stand up

01:20:42for his family here.

01:20:43That's it.

01:20:44Go quick.

01:20:44Get up.

01:20:45Shane McMahon

01:20:45barking orders to his father.

01:20:48But Vince McMahon's

01:20:49in way over his head here.

01:20:50One, two, one.

01:20:53Triple H

01:20:54rolls the right button

01:20:55and he's getting

01:20:56what he wanted.

01:20:58The opportunity

01:20:59to stop the life

01:21:00out of Vince McMahon.

01:21:02One, two, three, four.

01:21:05I mean, this is not

01:21:06a very pretty sight.

01:21:07I still can't believe

01:21:08this, King.

01:21:08After everything Triple H

01:21:10and Vince McMahon

01:21:11have been through

01:21:12over this past year.

01:21:15Oh, look at this.

01:21:15Look at China.

01:21:16Yeah, China.

01:21:17Whoa.

01:21:17Come on, you can do this.

01:21:18Rubbing salt in the wound.

01:21:19Come on, you can do this.

01:21:21Shane McMahon's

01:21:21a special guest referee

01:21:22and Triple H

01:21:23doesn't want anything of it.

01:21:24Well, look,

01:21:25Shane is trying

01:21:25to pump Vince up.

01:21:27Oh, come on now.

01:21:30China with a cheap shot.

01:21:33Yeah, Triple H

01:21:34calls himself

01:21:35of the game.

01:21:35He's the game all right.

01:21:37Get on him.

01:21:38Get on him.

01:21:38Look at this.

01:21:39Vince now trying

01:21:40to put him in.

01:21:40Oh, come on Vince.

01:21:43A desperation maneuver

01:21:44by the owner.

01:21:45He's pulling out

01:21:46all the snaps.

01:21:47He went for the grapefruit.

01:21:49And folks,

01:21:50the bell did ring.

01:21:51The WWF championship

01:21:53is on the line.

01:21:54But for Vince McMahon,

01:21:55this is personal.

01:21:57This is a defense

01:21:58of verbal attacks

01:21:59on his family,

01:22:00on his wife, Linda,

01:22:01his son, Shane,

01:22:03and of course, himself.

01:22:04Boy, and Triple H

01:22:05orchestrated this entire event.

01:22:07He picked the time.

01:22:08He picked the place.

01:22:09He picked his special

01:22:11referee, Shane McMahon.

01:22:12And then, of course,

01:22:13he had Vince.

01:22:14Oh, my gosh.

01:22:15He had Vince in mind

01:22:16all along.

01:22:18And Triple H

01:22:19is a marked man.

01:22:20He is the most wanted man

01:22:22in the WWF.

01:22:24This is totally uncalled.

01:22:30Stomping away now.

01:22:32I would try to say

01:22:33to Triple H.

01:22:34You made your point now.

01:22:35Wrap it up.

01:22:37Our Triple H now.

01:22:39Oh, my God.

01:22:39Look at this now,

01:22:40I've been...

01:22:40Come on now.

01:22:42A heinous attack

01:22:43with that camera cord.

01:22:46Come on, Shane.

01:22:47Come on, man.

01:22:47Make it this time.

01:22:48You want it?

01:22:49Hey, hey, Joe.

01:22:51What do you think

01:22:52you're proving here,

01:22:53Hunter?

01:22:54Huh?

01:22:55Triple H.

01:22:56Shane just asked him,

01:22:57what are you trying

01:22:58to prove here?

01:22:59Oh, my God.

01:22:59Vince McMahon

01:23:00into those steel stairs.

01:23:01Come on, man.

01:23:02I mean, for God's sake,

01:23:04Vince McMahon

01:23:04has no condition

01:23:05to be involved in this.

01:23:06Well, I would say

01:23:07that Shane should stop it,

01:23:08but I don't think

01:23:09that Vince

01:23:09is the kind of man

01:23:10who...

01:23:11Wait, right here.

01:23:11Oh, no, wait a minute.

01:23:12Come on, come on.

01:23:13Don't do this, Triple H.

01:23:17Vince McMahon

01:23:18lifeless on the announce table.

01:23:21Wait a minute.

01:23:21What are you going to do here?

01:23:22What the world's he doing?

01:23:23Come on.

01:23:24Get out of here.

01:23:24Don't do this, Triple H.

01:23:32Come on, Triple H.

01:23:33That's enough now.

01:23:34Vince McMahon

01:23:34can hardly move

01:23:35on the announce table.

01:23:37Wait a minute.

01:23:39Hold it.

01:23:40Wait a minute.

01:23:40What the hell is he doing?

01:23:41No, don't do that.

01:23:48This is on.

01:23:49I can't believe it.

01:23:53He drove his elbow

01:23:54right in the heart

01:23:55of Vince McMahon.

01:23:57Get out of here.

01:23:58Move.

01:23:58Move it.

01:23:59Move it.

01:24:00This is hard.

01:24:01Come on.

01:24:01Somebody's got to

01:24:02step this thing.

01:24:06I don't care

01:24:07if the title

01:24:07is on the line.

01:24:08We've got to do

01:24:08something about this.

01:24:16Come on, Hunter.

01:24:17Vince McMahon

01:24:17is the referee,

01:24:17but Michael,

01:24:19can you get a hold
